I am leaving a review based on a phone conversation with Akash, the owner. Unfortunately, he couldn't help me with an available room. But he was so helpful and kind in explaining why!! This motel has been in his family for a number of years. Based on his friendly, forthright demeanor, I am guessing they have this customer service thing figured out! I am bummed there was no room for us on the solar eclipse weekend. But I enjoyed talking to Akash.

Before you stay, watch "Welcome To Crappie Lake" and get the behind-the-scenes overview of Benton and Motel Benton. I truly enjoyed our stay. From our wonderful hosts to clean rooms, and having the opportunity to stay in Luann's room, #22.You will have so much fun staying at Motel Benton.Rooms: Loved Luann's room. Sonja's was next door #21.Walkability: You are close to the main square with many good restaurants.

Benton Motel helped make a difficult situation into just a minor bump. My vehicle broke down on a Sunday afternoon on the interstate, close to Benton. Stranded at the Benton Walmart, I read a motel review on Google saying the motel had a pick up service. Owner graciously left watching the conference championship to pick me up, extending a warm graciousness that was very appreciated. The room is a bit dated, but VERY clean. Bed very comfortable. And the price very affordable.A new section is currently under construction and will soon be ready for those wanting a more modern feel.Safety: Motel is clearly monitored by owner and caretakers.Noteworthy details: Very clean.

I planned on staying at the hotel....Akash called me day of arrival to confirm my arrival. I had car issues and had to return home and bring it in for repair. Thinking I'd be able to arrive next day, Akash moved my room around and made it work. He called again (proactively) to ask if I was coming. Unfortunately, the car is still in disrepair. I appreciated how Benton Motel mgmt communicated and handled my reservation and look forward to eventually visiting the property. Thanks!

What a fun experience at Motel Benton. Needed just one night and being a fan of "Welome to Crappie Lake", we thought it would be fun to stay. We stayed in Luann's room and it did not disappoint! The room was very clean and neat. The bed was very comfortable. We also had a great visit with the owner while checking out. Look forward to returning here in the future.Rooms: Very clean and well maintained.

The Owner is Super Nice & very knowledgeable of the area. (Even has a driver to take you to airport/train station etc). He really helped out during an unpredicted travel emergency and made everything go as smooth as possible! I would totally recommend the Benton Motel to anyone traveling and needs a comfortable place to stay!

We were extremely pleased with both the service and the room. Akash is the owner, and he is so courteous and responsive. If you need anything at all he will make sure that you get it. The room was immaculate. We visit family in Christopher, so the location is excellent. It is also close to Rend Lake and other places. This will be our go-to motel when we visit the area. Thank you, Akash, for a nice and pleasant stay.

What a gem! I was completely charmed by this place. Not only was the room spotlessly clean, the bed was very comfortable. I was greeted warmly by one of the owners when I arrived. It felt like I was staying in a nice guest room in friendly people's home. I will be back!

So comfortable! Room was clean, quiet and the beds were comfortable. The pillows were exactly to my likes, firm and thick. The water pressure in the shower was marvelous. Friendly owners. Thank you for ending our long day comfortably.

The Benton Motel is a fabulous place to stay! It is very well taken care of, clean and super friendly staff. I can’t say enough about the owner, Akash and his wife- I was blown away by their kindness and fun conversation while there. This is a must stay while passing through Benton, IL! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
